It is also a good idea to re-configure the Sound Acceleration after messing with sound- or directx-drivers:
- Open Control Panel and select the sound configuration applet:
- Sounds (Win95/Me).
- Sounds and Multimedia (WinMe/Win2k).
- Sounds and Audio Devices (WinXP).
- Select the Audio-tab and press Advanced-button for Sound Playback and the window Advanced Audio Properties comes up.
- Select the Speakers-tab and select your speaker setup (If already selected, then change it, press Apply and then change it back).
- Select the Performance-tab and slide the Hardware Acceleration to Full (If already Full, then slide it down, press Apply and then change it back).
- Press Ok-button to accept the new audio configuration.
- Open Control Panel and select the Display properties-applet.
- Select the Settings-tab and press the Advanced...-button.
- Select the Troubleshooting-tab and set Hardware Acceleration to Full (If already Full, then slide it down, press Apply and then change it back).
- One might also check the display configuration tabs provided by the manufacture (Those tabs usually has icons).
- Press Ok-button to accept the new graphics configuration.
